Very important.

So true. i dont come close to meeting my basic needs. I just want some happiness man.

Agreed this actually really important as it distinguishes a well versed person from a loud one

​@@TheFetus132I'm really sorry for you! Hope you can change your life and be happy soon. Best of luck ❤

Yes!! I miss the one episode per week because I used to think of what could happen for seven days and was so excited to watch it. I do it myself but I miss the debate and making jokes with other people

I've really been enjoying Only Murders in the Building, bc it's something to look forward to every week + helps me know/care what day it is

@hicristy YEEESSS you see cuz now people just binge it all and their takeaway isn't as strong, plus its harder to remember everything because you just absorbed so much content at once..

@Zelomakitoko i had to bring back my toonami nights and just pick the anime i wanna watch and i'll watch one of each and have my anime marathon that way. i love my saturday nights again (if i'm not out)

@@Zelomakitoko yes came here to say this lol. & show appreciation for shows that come out weekly instead of all at once.

I had the same thought when I went to Versailles!

Ever since i heard this maybe a year ago my baseline happiness has gone up. Not like it cured everything but in general things dont seem so bad and its just easier seeing good things.

@@skie6282 yep! I've kept a daily gratitude journal for over 3 years now and went from being extremely dissatisfied with life to loving waking up every day

In 3 years? How? My wife is waitressing because she can’t find a well paid job as a translator.

I took this course during the pandemic too! It made me a better person in realising just how warped our ideas of happiness are, and it greatly humbled me. Recommend for anyone watching.

Got a link to the vocation test? Been looking for a good one

@@edwardmitchell6581 Lol I get do get this question a bit - I talk about it on my channel, but the short version is that I decided to go back to school (WGU), was obsessed & used acceleration to finish my BS in a little over 1yr & MS not that long after (acceleration again), worked at a small tech company during that time & then opened my own business because I also didn't like the job market.

@@binbin6076 Idk what I did with the results (thought I saved them so the site would be on them...) but the link should still be in the course, I'm guessing

I don't think she's THAT tiny compared to the Asian ladies I've been around 😂

@@nikkimiddlekillsday5161 Meanwhile a student I tutor is 5'11". At one point I thought she was taller than I was but it was just a matter of distance/angles (can you tell what I primarily tutor?)

I like that too! I'm gonan keep it in mind :)

Hi there, I'm in my mid twenties and want to share with you that I have had depression for half my life and have pulled through. For me, it took years of finally finding a supportive relationship, physically distancing myself from family (staying out in school or work till night time), ugly crying in therapy, connecting with kids through part time jobs and stumbling into a career. While I still deal with social anxiety and self doubt, the dark cloud only comes back a few days a year. I too mourn that the loss of my teenage years to depression, but have come to embrace this quote: "Its okay that you have flaws. How could our lives be as clean and white as a blank piece of paper?" Depression has left scars but there are opportunities to rebuild life. I am proud of you for trying to be here each and every day and want you know that there are people who loves or will love you for who you are, with depression and all. There can be a way through this darkness, and you may already be stumbling through it. Sending you love and strength x

TL;DR: it doesn't get harder than what you're going through now. I lived with depression as a child and through my teen years, meds and all. Found out as an adult that it was hereditary and that I'd be dealing with it for the rest of my life. I personally didn't find this crushing. It felt like everything clicked into place and I remember turning to my mother, my grandmother, my grandfather, and saying "YOU KNEW?!!!?!?!? You could have told me sooner!!!" but they didn't even know what depression was -- they're from a little village in the far east of Europe, honestly they thought it was just demons getting them down and they needed to go to church more. I still think it's funny. Hopefully it's not hereditary for you, hopefully you'll be able to overcome and pull through this darkness. I know I'll never be able to, but as an adult (I'm 24 as of writing this), I've learned to wear it like a warm weighted jacket. I'm doing my Masters in university, got a nice paying job lined up, had a few relationships. I'd had to go the long way around - Diploma through TAFE, then my Bachelor, then a few months gap then Masters (Thank you COVID). Depression doesn't stop you from living life, and when there's those moments you can't move off the bed, I've taken them on as time for introspection. Of course it's bothersome when it's just before assignments need to be handed in, or exams are right around the corner. Coping with it differs per person, and I find listening to my lectures like a podcast help the most - my teachers were more than happy to provide audio recordings as an alternate means of accessing their course once I was open and honest with them. I also had to have a real chat with myself: what did I see as achievement? What did I see as progress? Was I living for somebody else's form of dopamine? Is my worth measured by another person's metrics, or do I define myself? (please understand, if you do see yourself as per another person's metrics, and you feel like it benefits you most, then there is no shame in continuing. I didn't, but I also know some people need that external validation in their healing journey). There's also the question: Am I me when I am with others, or do I come out when I am alone? (At this point, I personally had to move out of home because I realised I needed my own space to heal and be a person, which helped me in my journey). Yes, therapy would be highly beneficial, but do not force yourself into anything if you aren't ready. Therapy is a way to confront the depression on a fundamental level, and it's important to find a therapist who is qualified to explore it with you. And it's important to know that life with depression is a journey with it's ups and downs, and sometimes you'll be on top of the moon, other times you won't want to wake up. But one day there will be more periods of moonwalking than curling up at the bottom of the barrel. That's what makes life worth it.

Personally exercise works, also listing things you are grateful for each day and comparing them to the bad things helps.

As a teenage in same situation I love that for you

Not true. Hunter gatherers attempt to stake out one especially productive territory and learn it well. Playing tourist for the sake of it is suicidal: you might starve, or you could start a war and be exterminated when you trespass on the land that another group relies on to survive.

@@TheGreatAmphibian are you not familiar with nomadic hunter gatherer groups? Because some hunter gatherers stayed put, that is true, but some migrated constantly.

@@dewdew80 No, this is bs. Groups that migrated were either shuttling between two know gathering grounds with the season, or in search of a permanent basis. Your two main assets as a hunter gather are a superior location and detailed knowledge of that location. The idea of people moving permanently just for fun - including pregnant women and small children on foot! - is idiotic. Even beyond the risk of starvation and war, you will suffer immense child mortality. Go look at a map of how Homo sapiens spread out of Africa and the dates: it took thousands of years to move short distances. People without transport to move families and food reserves don’t migrate unless they are desperate. Because only an idiot would - and idiots that great don’t pass on their genes.

@@dewdew80 Because they had to, not because they liked it...
